Jordan The Warrior *Editing*

Chapter Twenty

It's been four days since going to the mall with mom. Today is Friday, and I'm waiting on Alice to be finish getting ready for school, but once again she's late. I'm about to leave her ass in a minute.

*Vrmm Vrmm*
I feel my phone vibrate in my pocket, taking it out I see a text from Adrian.

BIGHEADBABY🤩: Good Morning, Bear!! I'm on my way to school. I'll be waiting in front of the school for you. Don't be late 🥰

ME: Mornin Baby. I'm just waiting on Al and when she's done, I'm out.

BIGHEADBABY🤩: Kk☺️

Putting my phone back in my pocket, I get up to see what's taking her so long. Leaving the kitchen I bump to a body making them move back and me staying in my position. I look to see it was John, rolling my eyes because I know he got some shit to say. "You need to pay attention where you're going" he says with a disgust look on his face. "I can say the same thing to you" I say back to him. He moves closer to me, trying to intimidate me. I stand my ground, I'm not going to back down to him. I'm not some little kid anymore who whimpers away.

We start to have a stare off. I wanted him to hit me. I wanted him to make the first move, for I can beat him to bloody pulp. I can feel my nails digging into my palms from how tight I'm clenching my fist.

Please make the first move... please make the first move. I keep repeating those words in my head. Come on old man, I know you want to do it. I can tell he's getting pissed off that I'm not backing down.

He makes a move. "Ok Jo I'm ready" Al runs downstairs making him stop and move back. "Let's go for you make us late" I hear her say but don't take my eyes off John. He starts to walk away but stops before passing me, "You're lucky" he leans close to me whispering. I chuckle to myself because he's the one who got lucky here.

I walk to the door, opening it letting Al go first. "What was that all about" she asks. I mumble nothing and make it to the car.

****
We arrived at school with some time to spare before the bell rings. "Hey AL if you want a ride from me, you're going to have to be ready when I'm ready to go" I tell her before she leaves out the car. "Yeah okay Jo" smiles at me then leaves. I sigh, knowing she's still going to be late.

Walking to the front of the school, I see Adrian talking to a few people. I stop where I am at, not wanting to interrupt her conversation, so I take my phone out to text her.

BIGHEADBABY🤩: You look beautiful today.

I sent it out waiting for her to see it. I see her take out her phone, then looking at it. She smiles, then her expression turns to confused. Looking up from her phone, she starts to look around and she finds me. Smiling at me, she turns to her group, telling them something then starts to walk towards me. "Hey" I talk first. "Hey! You look nice as well," she smiles.

"How long have you been here watching me like a stalker ?" Says with a smirk on her face. I pretend to be taken aback by this, "what!? Me? Stalking you? Never!" She laughs hitting my chest, "come on you dork. Walk me to class" she warps her arm around mine. "I guess I can since we have the same class"

Walking Adrian to class, we get plenty of stares. For her, a lot of guys were staring at her, making me give them death glares. "Hi Jordan" "Hey Jordan" some girls greet me while passing them. I feel Adrian's grip gets tighter on my arm, I look down to see she has an annoyed look on her face. Chuckling to myself I move my arm around her shoulder "Stop it" bring her closer to me.

"Ladies first" I bow down "Wow such a gentlewoman" she says walking pass me. The whole time in class I couldn't pay attention because of the beauty sitting in front of the class. Barbie tried a couple of times to touch her, but she dodged every attempt.  Seeing his reaction every time she would give him the cold shoulder would put a huge smile on my face.

Class was over, and I walk to Adrian when I hear Barbie. "I'll walk you to class" he tells her. Stepping up, I stop him from taking her bag from her. "She's good. I'm going to take her" I let him know. He gives me a look then looks at Adrian like telling her to dismiss me or something. "Jordan taking me to class. See you at the meeting." She waves him off while I guide her out the class. I turn my head back to see an annoyed look on his face.

Dropping Adrian off at classroom, I start to make my way to mine. "Jordan!!!" "Yoo bro" I hear yelling behind me. Turning around, I see Jay and Pac running towards me. Once getting to me, they try to talk but they're out of breath. "Tex...text" pac waves her phone at me. "You got a text?" I ask her. She frantically nods, "Rum...Rumble" she adds. Piecing together what she was trying to say "The rumble texted you?" They nod their heads, jumping on me.

"They're giving you a fight trial" jay says. "What!? Really!? When!?" I start to jump with them. "Ladies!!!" We turn to look the teacher who's yelling at us "Get to class Now" she continues to yell. Listening to her, we start to walk, "so when is it?" I ask them again. "After school" Pac says. I stop in my tracks, "After school?". "Yup" Pac says, popping the P. "It's under the bleachers" jay says.

I don't really care where it's at, as long as I get to bash someone face in. "Okay so after school at the bleachers. Who's my opponent?". "Didn't say. You'll found out when you get there" Pac tells me and I nod my head.

****
The whole day, I couldn't stop thinking about my fight. I made sure I ate lunch this time, for I can get all the energy I need. Adrian and Summer were really disgusted how I was devouring the sloppy joes the cafeteria had, but Pac and jay was enjoying feeding me.

It's finally after school, and I'm making my way to the football field, where the guys told me they would meet me. Adrian kept asking me where I was going because she wanted to hang out after school. Her being so stubborn, she wasn't leaving me alone, so to ditch her I told her the guys and I are going to snatch the rest of the sloppy joes in the cafeteria. Once I said that, she was gone like a light.

I see the guys waiting for by the fence. "Hey" I say, walking up to them. "Sup" they both say. "I took this out of the weight room" jay says holding up a roll of sports tape. I give her my hand as she can wrap it up. "Damn Jo, stop moving" she says. My hold body couldn't stop shaking with adrenaline have. I couldn't wait to get my hands bloody.

Jay was done wrapping up my hands, and we start to make our way under the bleachers. I feel a hand grab my shoulder, stopping me. I look to see Pac, "Look sis, the rumble sends random fighters for these things. It can be a snob preppy kid or a guy off the streets who don't care if you're breathing after this. Be careful and keep your guard up" Looking in her eyes I see that she's worried. "I'll be fine, Pac. I'm going to knock this guy's head off"I said, reassuring her. She nods, trusting me. "Now let's go send someone to the ER" Jay says putting her arms around me and Pac.

Getting under the bleachers, it's a small crowd formed into circles. My eyes go wide when I see my opponent. Pac wasn't over reacting when she said they pick anybody. This man was HUGE, there's no way this guy goes here. "Okay, so they brought the guns out" Pac says. "That's Erick Owens. He's an All-American wrestler, so he's going to want to take you down and wear you out then ground & pound. He's fast and strong, but he lacks in the upstairs department. I predict the first thing he will do is rush you and try to get you down. Don't let him, or it's over. Now go fucking destroy him" She pushes me and I head to the center.

This guy probably got 30lbs on me, and he got the height too. I got to make this fast and quick. I move to the center where the ref is explaining the rules. Owens hasn't taken his eyes off me, and same for me. I back up getting into my stance.

"Ready"  Owens who nod

"Ready" I nod

"Fight!!"

Thank you for reading my work!!! Be safe out there you guys💜
